ExpectedOutcome:The implementation of GW-scale hydrogen production through water electrolysis is being planned within the next decade. Coupling of these installations with fluctuating renewable energy sources (RES) is increasingly attracting interest due to the imminent decarbonisation of the electrical energy system. To ensure long lifetime even during transient operation, and hence low cost of ownership, tools for monitoring, diagnostics, and control are needed to optimise operation and detect fault conditions at an early stage. Such tools have been demonstrated in research labs and have been part of several EU projects paving the way for the implementation of new methodologies within commercial systems embedding high-temperature (DESIGN, DIAMOND, INSIGHT, REACTT, a.o.) and low-temperature systems (D-CODE, SAPPHIRE, INSIDE, HEALTH-CODE, RUBY, a.o.). All of these projects focused on fuel cells with the exception of INSIDE and REACTT which looked at electrolysers, and these systems have not yet been demonstrated and integrated into electrolyser systems of industrially relevant scale (> 100 kW). In addition, robust methodologies for interpretation need to be developed and validated specifically for electrolysis, both in a representative embedded hardware for the algorithms and monitoring, and in a representative industrial system.
